68. After the application of torture, it is necessary to convince the person who had
undergone torture that the torture applied to him was quite a natural measure, or to take such
measures as will induce him out of a sense of pride, sense of honour, etc., not to speak about
it afterwards. In the case of persons from whom this cannot be expected, measures must be
taken as in the case of those upon whom accidental wounds have been inflicted.

this. Under no circumstances must other prisoners know about it. It is very important to take
measures to prevent shrieks from being heard.*
